[prolab69]

Went for a short little hunt after dinner to the community center by my house, was once A one room school house back in the 1800s, dug a few wheats, a few deep clad dimes, and this 1869 Indian head. if she was only in better shape. Also found this button, at least i think its a button, no markings on the back to identify, but its just a bit bigger than the indian.
enjoy the pics,
